<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>This book presents a day long symposium with Adam Phillips and includes two brilliant essays that reveal what is at the heart of psychoanalysis - a practice that can enable both analyst and patient to live life more fully. The volume includes questions and commentaries which reflect the creative and open expression supported throughout the symposium. In this unique volume, Phillips works through psychoanalytic theories about cure, encouraging serious consideration of those ideas that allow the analyst and patient to marvel at and take pleasure in the unknowable adventure ahead of them.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"We know Adam Phillips to be a remarkable writer but in this wonderfully spirited book we discover he is also an endlessly interesting conversationalist....we are privy to dialogue as a form of performance art.

It doesn't get better than this." -Christopher Bollas, psychoanalyst, and author of Meaning and Melancholia and The Shadow of the Object<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Adam is a practicing psychoanalyst, formerly Principal Child Psychotherapist at Charing Cross Hospital, London.
